Some pictures of the prints we have displayed. Went with Doug Horne, Big Toe, Jimenez, Vince Ray. Made some of the frames out of bamboo halves -- like the Dracula / Bloody Mary print:


... which we've framed to conceal an access panel.

The way I've concealed screws... Attached a piece of rope around the back of the screw / bamboo pole, drive the screw into the wall, and then slip the rope back over the screw. Time consuming, but I'd rather not have Phillips heads shining in the red light.

... And then assembled some crude frames from select 1x2 / 1x3 lumber, routed and stained... like the frame around this Doug Horne Vincent Price print.

With the pictures, we really wanted to avoid glass frames, to avoid glare.

Just a couple more pics...

Really getting close to the end of this one. I have the tables to assemble yet -- will post some pics when done. Some LED rope lights to place. And I have a few more prints coming.

Thanks again for all the kind words!
